Italy is well-known for its designers, who create cars, handbags, clothes, shoes and other items that are in demand for their style and fine workmanship.
Today, the economy of Italy is stronger than in the past. 【2】. Today, manufacturing and tourism are the main sources of income. There are some big companies, but Italy has many smaller companies, too.

27、Just a year ago, the colors were bright under the waves. Now it’s gray — the Maldivian reef is dead. The coral is killed by the pressure of rising temperatures.
Coral reefs are areas underwater where small creatures live. The coral is hard material formed on the bottom of the sea by the skeletons of those creatures. But the world has lost about half its coral reefs in the last 30 years. Scientists are working to prevent their destruction. Due to global warming, over 90 percent of corals are expected to die by 2050. “To lose coral reefs is to fundamentally undermine the health of a very large proportion of the human race,” said Ruth Gates, director of the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology.
Why are coral reefs important? Coral reefs support a fourth of all marine species, as well as half a billion people worldwide. They serve as barriers to protect coastlines from the storms. They provide billions of dollars from tourism, fishing and other trade. They are also used in medical research for cures for diseases. “Everyone should be concerned,” said biologist Ove Guldberg at Australia’s University of Queensland. “This is not just some distant dive destination. This is the basic structure of the ecosystem we depend on.”
The ocean is getting warmer. A rising temperature of just one to two degree Celsius can force coral to expel the algae (驱逐海藻) that live there. This leaves their white skeletons uncovered. It is a process called “bleaching”. Sixteen percent of the world’s corals died of bleaching in 1998. The problem has become much worse in recent years.
“We’ve lost 50 percent of the reefs, but that means we still have 50 percent left,” said Ruth Gates, who is working in Hawaii to breed corals that can better withstand increasing temperatures. She is also trying to “train” corals to survive rising temperatures. Gates says it is time to start “thinking outside the box”— find creative ways to help them.
【1】The underlined word “undermine” in paragraph 2 means ___________.
A．weaken
B．regain
C．promote
D．overlook
【2】What’s the major concern of the scientists like Ove Guldberg?
A．People won’t find a dive destination in the future.
B．The effort to save corals will turn out to be fruitless.
C．The destruction of coral reefs will affect the earth ecosystem.
D．The bright sea has lost its charm because of those dead corals.
【3】The fourth paragraph is mainly about ___________.
A．the harm of algae
B．the process of “bleaching”
C．the importance of coral reefs
D．the change of ocean temperature
【4】Ruth Gates’ attitude towards the protection of corals is ___________.
A．proud
B．cautious
C．optimistic
D．casual
28、To bring the Olympic spirit to developing nations in the late 1990s, the Olympic Committee allowed a small number of “wild card” athletes to join the Games. But because they didn’t have to go through any qualifying rounds to compete, when they arrived, not all of the competitors were prepared. One such athlete was a swimmer from Equatorial Guinea named Eric Moussambani. When Moussambani arrived at the 2000 Sydney Games, he’d only been training for the 100-meter freestyle for about eight months. He’d also never been in an Olympic-size pool and had never raced more than 50 meters. Regardless, he was determined to represent his country.
The three wild-card athletes were given their own race, and Moussambani was next to the other two swimmers from Niger and Tajikistan. When the official called the swimmers to begin the game, both of Moussambani’s competitors were disqualified for false starts. Left to swim by himself, Moussambani dove in and dog paddled, breathing for air and moving his arms and legs. Halfway through the race, the situation looked so serious that the audience seriously worried he was drowning.
When Moussambani finally passed the finish line and pulled himself from the water, the applause thundered. His final time was 1:52.72 - more than twice that of swimmers in the previous race. But Moussambani couldn’t have been happier. He told reporters, “I’ m going to jump and dance all night long in celebration of my personal success.”
Moussambani’s courage and determination made him an Olympic celebrity (名人). He kept training for the 2004 Games and even got his time down to a respectable 57 seconds.
【1】What can we infer about “wild card” athletes?
A．They arrive late.
B．They are well-prepared.

【2】How did Moussambani do in the race?
A．He lost in the race.
B．He swam unskillfully.
C．He failed at the beginning.
D．He disappointed everyone.
【3】How did Moussambani feel after finishing the race?
A．Extremely excited.
B．Quite ashamed.
C．Very disappointed.
D．Pretty calm.
【4】Which words can best describe Moussambani?
A．Smart and flexible.
B．Patient and careful.
C．Brave and determined.
D．Optimistic and modest.
29、Have you always wanted to visit Disney World or Disneyland, but were waiting for different reasons? The happiest place on earth isn’t far out of reach. 【1】.
Disney gets bad fame for raising their ticket prices often. Throughout much of the 2010s, Disney raised fees at almost double the rate of inflation (通货膨化), according to the Wall Street Journal. 【2】. In February 2020, Disneyland, in California, raised prices on its one-day park tickets about 5 percent. This is a rather large price increase because it’s the first time Disneyland park tickets have crossed $200.
When Disney World opened, staying at the Bora Bora Bungalows cost $29 per night. Now it can cost as much as $3,400! 【3】? Disney isn’t hunting for money, with a net income in 2019 of $10.44 billion. But here are some reasons:
【4】
Since Walt Disney World opened in Orlando in 1971, Disney has expanded faster and faster, with new parks and attractions, pulling ahead of the competition and attracting double the visitors of its closest competitor.
To Attract Wealthier Customers
【5】, with private tours dinners with princesses, and the opening of a five-star hotel. “They know that the money is in the upper class, the top 10 percent, the top 1 percent.” Niles says. “They’ve created a wide variety of new products to try, and, honestly, earn more money from the rich people.”
A．To occupy the market
B．How does Disney become popular
C．So why are the tickets getting so expensive
D．To earn more money from different people
E．However, its continuously rising ticket prices might make you frustrated
F．Disney has also increasingly attracted people with more money to spend
